Cakewalk Unreal sound design

Hi all

Just really getting into sound design with unreal engine, mostly do ambient music and drone type stuff , I’m running a Hp Z400 with Ableton Live 9, Cakewalk and Fl studio for extra sound design elements but pretty much mix in cakewalk , also Fmod, is it better to run the engine on a different pc then the daw or do most sound designers have everything on one machine ? just being curious about setups ?

Thanks
